I can't lie and say that I wasn't shocked when Thorton's name was called. He wasn't on most boards and I was skeptical if he was athletic and big enough for the Association. We'll see if he makes the main roster because I assume he'll start the season in the D league.

Source? I know for a fact LSU did, unless you are referring to 1st round stats. That number of 17 is impossibly low to encompass the entire draft. MLB alone has like 80 rounds...

Louisville is the only school to have a player drafted in the first round of the NBA, NFL and MLB drafts with Devante Parker (Dolphins), Terry Rozier (Celtics) and Kyle Funkhouser (Dodgers).

When you factor in the upcoming NHL draft projections, Boston College may be the only school that has athletes drafted in ALL FOUR major sports this year! Not too shabby!

Hey Louisville...I know you guys are excited as you should be.
But at some point you have to act like you've been there before and have some tradition. New money in the old money neighborhood is usually embarrassing. ..

The NBA only has 2 rounds. So it is not "impossibly low".

First off, congratulations William & Mary - that's quite an accomplishment!
Second, congrats also to BC, Duke, Louisville, Notre Dame and UVa - 5 ACC teams. The only other conference with 5 was the Pac-12 (Arizona, Oregon, Stanford, UCLA, Utah). Big Ten has 3, SEC has 2, Big XII has 1.

5/12 > 5/14.
Interesting
JK. The move to P5 has had a much more rapid effect on Olympic sports and the ability to recruit to these programs. It is night and day different from MWC days.

Juwan Staten missed out on the NBA draft. If he were a few inches taller, he'd have had no problem. But them's the breaks.
WVU had the NFL and MLB draft covered. But missed out on the NBA draft.

RE: Only schools with players drafted by MLB, NFL, and NBA in 2015
As stated earlier this list comes down to the NBA draft since there are only 2 rounds. Most schools have at least one MLB and NFL talent level player on their roster due the number of rounds they offer in the draft and roster size of the teams. However, very few have NBA level talent on them. Also, many schools may not get a player drafted but have players sign as an un-drafted FA with specific team to go to their camp.
